This is known as simply Oreo Dessert at our house and has been the star of many a birthday party. We’ve always used FRENCH vanilla pudding (except once when somebody bought plain vanilla…), and it’s waaayyy better with the French vanilla. I know, hard to believe it could get even better.

Crush the whole Oreo. I crush the Oreos for the crust and the Oreos for the topping (10 cookies) separately. You can also crush them all at once, but be sure to reserve some of the crumbs for sprinkling on top! Thanks and enjoy!

I use homemade whipped cream with a little cream of tartar for stabilization; I also remove the white center of the Oreos. Just a less sweeter way to go and it’s still plenty sweet and had a more homemade, fresher taste. Not much difference in trans fat also.

Did you mean a 13×9 inch pan? I started trying to spread the cookies in that sized pan and realized there weren’t close to enough to cover the bottom so I switched to a 9×9 pan, and that worked great. When I came back to reread the recipe just now it doesn’t look like your pan is a 13×9 either. Just checking because I was so confused why I didn’t have enough cookies!

We always use a 13×9 for this exact recipe. I only used a 9×9 pan for the photos because it was more manageable to shoot. If there wasn’t enough try reserving only 6 cookies for the topping next time and use the rest for the crust. I also realize companies are always changing package sizes so maybe this needs updating!

Hi,
I didn’t realize it said NOT cook and serve for the pudding until now that I was pulling all my ingredients out to start making it. Do you think it will still work? I was ready to start now and don’t really want to have to go to the store again :(.
Thank you

Sorry for the late reply. I’ve never used cook and serve pudding before, but I believe it could work. You would have to incorporate the cream cheese somehow after it’s cooked. I hope it wasn’t a total loss for you because this dessert is finger-licking good!

[…] This is a frozen spin on Pineapple Upside Down Cake–no cake involved–in honor of summer, which I hear some parts of the United States are currently experiencing. Not so in Northern Illinois, it’s been freezing! Regardless, the first day of summer is just a day away and it’s always good to have some no-bake recipes on hand (like this Oreo Pudding “Cake”). […]
